update to the magpie story
 
I've just seen a magpie pulling what I thought was a twig from halfway down
our tree. The original nest was at the top.

It was another of those white 'gothic arch' (actually more Norman, being
rounded) garden bed edging things. It flew off to a neighbouring roof before
taking it into a much smaller cupressus a few gardens away.

And my bloomin' camera battery was dead!

The birds been watching to many property programs. It must have a lot
of enthusiasm considering it's last disaster. :-)


Now there's a thought - perhaps it's on reality tv?

Dunno. Rarely expose myself to reality and then only by accident.
